The nurses union at East Niagara Hospital have agreed to a three-year contract which calls for an 8 percent raise over the course of the deal.

The contract, which covers 157 employees at ENH-Lockport, was approved by the nursing staff nearly unanimously on Thursday. It is retroactive to April 1.

ENH healthcare workers have been at odds with hospital administration, calling for a change in hospital leadership last month. That squabble listed several concerns with the administration, but did not mention pay for nurses. It is unknown if the new contract voids the group's demands.

A call to ENH-Lockport representatives was not returned Monday evening.
